Unfortunately my listings are going to drop markedly over the next few months. The paper I use for my stickers has been discontinued and I have not been able to find a similar replacement so will have to re-do (if I decide to continue) over 400 different designs, with photos, layouts and listings (x 4 different sites). I should have enough for a few months which gives me a bit of leeway. Not only that my own website got hacked twice recently so I have had it all deleted and upgraded to a more secure server and am currently re-building/re-designing it all from scratch so that will be the next few weeks (months?) taken care of. I sometimes wish I could just retire and concentrate on my garden and pets__________________

Christine so very sorry about your site getting hacked - how truly awful for you. And I'll keep my fingers crossed that you'll find a new supplier for the kind of paper you need. I think we've all run across 'supply probs' at one time or another and it's frustrating to say the least!

Going to be slow going for me too. Completely re-vamping shop here, but doing OK in my E shop money wise. Staying afloat but still hanging on to that rubber ducky float! Health problems continue, but are better. Just gotta go slower than 100mph from now on.

So sorry. Yes, I too wonder how much longer I can endure issues similar to yours. We just press on until we can't anymore. We also do what we have to do. I've read about so many creative friends cutting back and purging activities, and a few shop closures as well.

Thank you Mary, Sandi, Dix and Spoosyboo - Ugh, didn't I sound miserable and sorry for myself in that post, blame it on the infection I am just getting over - and the miserable weather (Storm Eleanor has just blown through) as well I am normally a much more positive and optimistic person than that

After a few (quite a few) false starts I now have a design I like and have roughed out my site - and even have my first blog post up__________________
